Simone Yves has been a Bordeaux guide for 40 years, after passing a certification exam. His love…read moreand passion for the city he was born in is obvious and infectious, and he wears his trademark uniform (which, on closer inspection, can use an update). Simone also carries around a big tube of old maps which he uses along the way as visual aids. However, his talk is very history heavy and rather dry, and I suspect most visitors would appreciate a smaller dose and more light-hearted delivery. Towards the end, the heat, the long walk, and the heavy tube (which I offered to relieve from my friend who had been commissioned to carry it for a long while) took a toll and I was glad to hand him back the tube with an Au Revoir.

We just finished a fantastic 6 day bike tour planned and equipped by O2Cycles. Jonathan and Norbert…read morewere extremely responsive and patient with our group, making adjustments to our inventory and equipment (e.g. adding waterproof phone mounts) right up until departure. We received and returned our bikes painlessly meeting them at the Bordeaux train station. The bikes were well equipped and in excellent condition. We suffered no flats or maintenance issues during the trip, though we were well prepared with the provided repair kit with spare tubes, pump, patch kit etc. We would very happily plan another trip with O2Cycles; they know the region very well and their suggestions for routes, restaurants, sights and stops were all top notch. Couldn't be happier!

Extremely pleased!!…read more We rented 2 bikes with panniers and handlebar bags for a two week trip on the 500 kms tour de Gironde. Everything worked out well. The bikes arrived and were picked up at the predetermined time. They were in excellent condition and we had no maintenance problems. Both Celia and Norbert answered all pertinent questions that we had before our trip. Communication in English was just fine. I would highly recommend this company. If I return to Bordeaux, I will gladly rent bikes from them.

Good price, no paperwork, & my Driver's License was sufficient rather than having to supply a passport. The bikes were well maintained: gears shifted easily & breaks worked well. Rental included locks & helmets. I wouldn't consider renting anywhere else in Bordeaux. Also, it's across the street from the river, easy to find.
